Links to Other Websites

This Website may contain links to external third-party websites that are not hosted, sponsored or maintained by Qorvo or its affiliates. Qorvo is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such websites. Therefore, we recommend that you carefully read the privacy statements of such third-party websites.

Do Not Track Requests

Qorvo does not currently take actions to respond to Do Not Track signals sent by your web browser because a uniform technological standard has not yet been developed. We continue to review new technologies and may adopt a standard once one is created. While we, or vendors on our behalf, may track the sites you visited before and after our Website for our internal business purposes, we do not authorize other third parties (e.g., advertisers) to do so, but it is nonetheless possible that third parties may do so for their own purposes with respect to which we may have no knowledge or control.
